Two things really brought back the weight loss and healthy living to the forefront of my thoughts. First off, I got really nice words of encouragement from a stranger who has been on an impressively dedicated weight loss plan. He even has an online weight loss chart kind of like mine. The other is last night at a Cincinnati Reds game. A guy about 10 rows behind me died in the middle of the game. While I don't know the true cause of death, he was a very large, overweight guy and it was a very hot and humid night. One only can assume that his lack of physical fitness had something to do with it. While we all have to go at somepoint, I would like to think that my getting in shape lessens the possibility that I might die so suddenly and traumatize my family and friends. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family of this man.

Wow, I don't know how I found this article, but that is so sad and so true. We see people everyday that fit those criteria, "very large, over weight". We know, we love people that fit into this group. Along with being inspired to help your self be fit and healthy, this makes me want to help them too.
